1. I am greatly enjoying the DW Series 3 soundtrack. Just brilliant. I can't say I really noticed the scoring a lot before, say, the end of series 2 (the Doomsday music really got me), but series 3 in particular is just scored fabulously. On the show, of course, the music serves to heighten the emotion or action of a specific scene--and sometimes it can be a really good thing when you don't notice it, and it just does its job. But apart from the show this music really holds together. Of course, for me its evocative of a set of stories and characters that I love, so that's a plus, but also: just brilliant, brilliant music.
2. Today is the...fourth? day in a row that I have skipped swimming and promised myself that I would go tomorrow. But I really will go tomorrow.
3. I still have to figure out which of my prospective grad programs need a FAFSA and fill out and file said FAFSA. My job would be made so much easier if this information were made easily available! Consequently, I think I need to make a number of phone calls tomorrow. Fin aid office won't give clear, concise information? I'll have to bother them personally.
4. Right, still on DW. Also got the proper commentary for the series 3 finale (since the one on the box set is not the one they promised, and not the one on the UK set. And nothing could be better than commentary with David, John AND Freema. Seriously.) I listened to it on my iPod on my way to work today, and had the awkward experience of standing on the train trying not to laugh out loud (too much). Which only made it funnier.
